        <p>
          The Quasar DV Codec (<span class="application">libdv</span>) is a
          software CODEC for DV video, the encoding format used by most
          digital camcorders. It can be used to copy videos from camcorders
          using a firewire (IEEE 1394) connection.
        </p>
        <p>
          This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-9.1
